I bought this book second hand from Amazon and its in brilliant condition that you wouldn't know that it had ever been bought by anyone else. I decided to buy it as I am reading W. H. Davies' autobiography on my kindle entitled "An autobiography of a super tramp" and it is a really good read once you get used to the old fashioned way of writing. I love poetry and I think that he writes the sort of things that I can identify with especially the nature poems. Probably his most famous poem is "Leisure" which I have printed together with a photo of a robin singing and it is on one of my kitchen cupboard doors. It starts: "What is this life if full of care we have no time to stand and stare" if you can't quite recall it. It heartens me to know that I'm not the only one that writes poems about nature.
Thank you for getting yesterday's photo of Squizzer on PP and for all your kind comments and Favs. It is always much appreciated.
Pleased to hear you enjoyed the peoms and the autobiography of a super-tramp, it was published in 1908 so not surprised you struggled old fashioned way of writing:)
Sounds interesting. I had to read a book written in 1926 for some of my graduate studies and while I was able to pick up on the formal English of the writing most of my classmates struggled to understand it and gave up. I have a feeling Mr. Davies would like the combination of your pictures and his words.
